Seeds
Day 8/100 Day Project
It took 12 days for my tomato seeds to sprout. All they needed was soil, water, and warmth - and a bit of patience. Now the seedlings are stretching towards the grow lights above them; never mind the snow flurries outside the window today.
“I marvel at the mysterious life force compressed into these tiny seeds. A seed represents the womb of life; it breaks open when encouraged by moisture and darkness at the right time of year. I witness this miracle every single year and never take it for granted.”1
You don’t have to be a gardener to plant seeds this month. Your energetic seeds may take the form of an idea, creative nudge or inspiration that can sprout into a rewarding project when given sufficient attention.
Planting seeds, especially during times of darkness, is an act of resistance.
What kind of seed are you planning to nurture?

An excerpt from the March chapter of my book, Seasons of a Wild Life
Food garden, dormant,
dreams of bountiful harvests.
Seeds, we do our thing.
…
Every, each wee seed,
they know well what they must do.
When and how to grow.
…
Seed, sprout, tomatoes!
Began baby, and grew big.
The mighty life force.
